Travel to Ferrari Park. Ferrari World Abu Dhabi. Prices and opening hours

The Formula Rossa roller coaster is the highlight of the program at Ferrari World. The fastest in the world, they accelerate to 240 km/h. In terms of total length, they are the 6th in the world - 2,000 meters, but visitors cover this distance in just 92 seconds.

The second big roller coaster. They are stylized as an airplane from the early 20th century of the famous ace Francesco Baracca. Getting on it is much easier than Formula Rossa, the queue is much shorter, and the attraction is more spacious - 28 people.

This attraction (just like Formula Rossa) has a peculiarity - the track is located outside the indoor park. In strong winds, it is dangerous to operate the attraction, and it is simply closed for a while until the wind subsides. When the wind speed is 10 m/s (20 knots) or more, the operation of the attraction definitely stops. At speeds from 5 to 10 m/s at the discretion of park staff.

The launch here does not take place by catapult, as on Formula Rossa, but in the traditional way - by pulling the trolleys up the slope at an angle of 51 degrees to a height of 63 meters.

Flying Aces boasts a record-breaking “loop” height of 52 meters (pictured above, click to enlarge), 10 places of zero gravity and speeds of up to 120 kilometers per hour. The trailer is made in the style of an airplane from the First World War. The length of the track is 1.5 kilometers. The Flying Aces attraction opened relatively recently - in February 2016.

The permitted height of the visitor is from 1.3 to 1.96 meters. Maximum acceleration is 4.8G. Travel time is 2.5 minutes. We warn you that the attraction is not for the faint of heart.

The third pride of the Ferrari World park. This is a combination of a roller coaster and a free fall ride. The train can accommodate 12 people, of which 6 sit with their backs at the start, 6 with their faces. The train quickly accelerates and slides onto a vertical rail, which also twists around its axis.

If you looked at the photo of Ferrari World Park from above, you probably noticed a funnel in the center, from this funnel the visitors of this attraction appear (in the photo on the right, click on the photo to enlarge). At the height there will be about 3 seconds to look around, and then the train falls down the same vertical rail.

Few visitors manage to understand at first what just happened to them. We recommend riding Turbo Track at least twice.

The height of the track is 64 meters, the train reaches a speed of 102 km/h. This is the newest attraction at Ferrari World, having only opened in March 2017. Until this moment, there was a regular “free fall” attraction here, it was called G-Force. For viewing the surrounding area from a height, the G-Force was much more convenient, since visitors sat on it vertically. The new Turbo Track is more interesting in terms of thrill.

It took the Swiss company Intamin more than a year to build and test the Turbo Track. The attraction underwent full testing with dummies with built-in sensors. Safety guaranteed.

The permitted height of the visitor is from 1.3 to 1.96 meters. People who are too fat may be removed from the ride before the start if the equipment holding the passenger cannot be secured. Before the trip, you need to remove all items from your pockets and leave mobile phones at the entrance. Travel time is 30 seconds. The total length of the tracks is 180 meters.

This is a parallel roller coaster ride. That is, two tracks are laid next to each other, two trains travel along them in parallel. The carriages imitate the famous Ferrari F430 Spider sports car. The track is designed in such a way that the trains alternately take the lead, creating the feeling of a race between them. Naturally, they reach the finish line almost simultaneously.

The course is outside the indoor park and may be closed in the event of strong winds.

This is the simplest roller coaster at Ferrari World. If you are afraid to go straight to Formula Rossa or Flying Aces, then we recommend starting with the Fiorano GT Challenge. There are no dead loops, sharp turns, sharp descents or ascents.

This is one of the oldest attractions in the park, it has been here since its opening. It once seemed like the pinnacle of engineering. Acceleration is carried out by linear electric motors, braking is carried out by magnets. The Fiorano GT Challenge was built by Maurer from Germany (Munich).

The most fun is to ride together on different trains, because one of them will finish at least a fraction of a second faster. There is a queue here, but it's small. The attraction accommodates 24 people.

Maximum speed – 95 km/h. The length of the route is 1080 meters. Maximum overload – 2G. Travel time is 1 minute 20 seconds. Height limit is from 1.3 to 1.95 meters.

Ferrari Museum

This museum is called “Galleria Ferrari”. This is the second largest exhibition of Ferrari cars and trophies after the museum in Maranello. The composition of the exhibition changes periodically, but a real Formula 1 car can always be seen here.

Agree, every modern person would like to stay young as long as possible. And not to seem or look, but to feel like a teenager in some ways, enjoy the little things, make big and small discoveries and laugh fervently, even without having a significant reason for this.

Unfortunately, a time machine has not yet been invented, and no such discoveries are expected in the near future. But not everything is as sad and hopeless as it might seem at first glance. There is certainly a way out. Do you want to feel like a child again? Then head to Ferrari Park in Abu Dhabi.

Let's try to tell you about this place in as much detail as possible. It really deserves special attention. We guarantee that a day spent here will definitely become one of the highlights of your long-awaited vacation.

Ferrari Park in Abu Dhabi. general information

The world famous and popular Ferrari complex World Abu Dhabi, which translated into Russian means “Ferrari World”, is the largest excursion and entertainment park in the world, dedicated to a specific theme - cars of the famous Ferrari brand. Its territory allows both adults and children to plunge headlong into a fascinating world

If any country in the world has not yet lost the ability to surprise, it is United Arab Emirates. Ferrari Park, which is located in close proximity from the capital of the UAE, Abu Dhabi, is another confirmation of this.

The journey to Yas Island takes only 10 minutes. if the traveler decides to go there directly from the airport, and about an hour from the Circuit.

Territory: the scale is impressive

An excursion to Ferrari Park is usually enjoyed by both adults and young travelers.

The total area of ​​the establishment is about 435 thousand square meters. m of magnificent landscape, but it should be noted that 96 thousand sq. m. occupy indoor premises. The most striking feature is undoubtedly the streamlined red roof, which has an area of ​​201 thousand square meters. and built in the shape of 3 petals, each of which is a repetition of the classic lines of the legendary GT.

Note that so much aluminum was used to make the roof that it would be enough to create 16,750. The decoration of the top part of the building is considered to be the largest logo of the brand. There is simply nothing like this in the Ferrari world!

Hello future!

The Ferrari Park in Abu Dhabi is fraught with many surprises that will capture not only your spirit, but also your imagination. For example, during the construction of the foundation in 2007, a “time capsule” was laid containing a piston and connecting rod from the F1 Ferrari car, which became the champion in 2007. The capsule is scheduled to be delivered on Ferrari's centenary celebrations in 2047.

By the way, the Ferrari Park in Abu Dhabi opened its doors to visitors for the first time in mid-2010.

What is the pride of the country today?

It is difficult to imagine that at the moment there are over 20 attractions and unique attractions, a large number of shops, several restaurants mainly serving local or European cuisine in the park.

You can spend quite a long time here. The cost of a ticket to Ferrari Park is quite reasonable. It depends on the category of tourist, on the length of stay and, oddly enough, on the time of year. On average it is 65-100 US dollars. Of course, it’s a lot of money, but, according to those who have already been there, it’s completely worth it.

Wow, I'll ride! or The key to an unforgettable vacation

The park has a colossal number of attractions that can interest both children and adults.

"Ferrari World" presents various simulators used to train real modern racers. In addition, you can take an entertaining trip to the Ferrari factory or into the heart of the legendary car - the Ferrari 599 engine, a sightseeing flight over the outskirts of Italy, or visit a gallery dedicated exclusively to this car brand.

For strong-willed men and women

The most popular attraction in the park is It is the fastest American race in the world with a length of 2.07 km. Sharp twists and turns are guaranteed for everyone.

The carriages, made in the shape of red Ferrari F1 cars, reach speeds of up to 100 km/h in less than 2 seconds. Before you even have time to blink an eye, as they say, they are already rushing you at a speed of about 240 km/h. Dashing, what can I say!

Before the start of the race at the starting area, each participant is given a pair of glasses that allow them to protect their eyes from the powerful air currents generated during the movement. By the way, it should be noted that the trailers start with a force of approximately 20,800 hp. and rise to a height of about 52 m in 4-5 seconds, and all thanks to the use of systems at launch that resemble those used to launch jet aircraft.

Feel like a real king of the track

An equally popular attraction is the Fiorano GT Challenge, where almost anyone can try their hand at competing with other “racers” racing in parallel in trailers reminiscent of a Ferrari F430 Spider to the finish line.

During sharp accelerations and on sharp turns, competitors experience an unforgettable sensation. In each race, of course, a winner is determined.

Dedicated to curious visitors

Anyone who for some reason does not intend to visit the attractions on this particular day can go to the Ferrari Gallery, located outside of Maranello. The entire history of Ferrari is showcased here, from 1947 to the present day.

Here you can almost always meet crowds of people with cameras. Why? Everything is explained very simply: what you see around you is so amazing that a burning desire certainly arises to capture what is happening as a memory. It is not surprising that photographs with the inscription: “Dubai, Ferrari Park” are photographs that annually become a real decoration of the family archive of many, many travelers.

Modern technologies are an important component of the park

The multimedia screen provides an opportunity for gallery visitors to meet the drivers, dreamers, creators and engineers who have made Ferrari a global name and a true icon of the automotive industry.

The gallery also features films, artifacts and documents that relate to the creation and history of Ferrari.

UAE, Ferrari Park: a look at production from the inside

It is also quite interesting to visit the Made in Maranello attraction, since it allows you to be directly inside the Ferrari factory and see and learn with your own eyes how complex and fascinating the process of creating a Ferrari GT is.

At the same time, it is quite possible to follow the entire process of creating a car: design development, molten aluminum casting, engine assembly, painting, final manual assembly, as well as testing cars on the famous Maranello track - all this happens before your eyes.

Attractions for the little ones

Little ones will most likely be attracted by the interactive playground Junior Training Camp, the name of which, when translated into Russian, sounds very symbolic: “Children's training camp.”

Here they can try to wash a car themselves without water, feel like a designer or engineer, ride in their own small replica of a Ferrari, control cars using a remote control, and so on.

Prices and opening hours

When entering the park you should pay attention to important information about the cost of tickets. Agree that we are all accustomed to the fact that prices in most cases are divided into children's and adults'. Here everything depends on the height of the park visitor: guests are divided into 2 categories - below and above 150 cm. And based on this, the possibility of visiting certain attractions is determined (for “small” or for “large”).

The cost of a regular excursion with the opportunity to explore the territory and grounds for a person shorter than 1.5 m will cost approximately 45-46 US dollars, for those taller - 62 US dollars, and for a child whose height is less than 1 meter, there is no need to pay at all.

The park is open to visitors 6 days a week, from 12:00 to 22:00 local time. The day off is Monday.

When going on holiday to the UAE, be sure to stop in Abu Dhabi. “Ferrari Park” (the photos presented in the article allow you to appreciate the splendor of the entertainment complex) will not leave any adult indifferent, not to mention children! Don't forget to take your camera with you: when you look at the wonderful pictures later, you won't regret the money spent.

It should be noted that when visiting certain attractions, tourists are doused with water generously. Be prepared for “water procedures”.

On the territory of the Ferrari World park there is great amount shops offering a large selection of souvenirs, as well as goods with Ferrari symbols. The most popular clothing items are polos, sweaters, T-shirts, jackets and T-shirts. In addition, here you can buy interesting bags, watches, towels, mugs and even bed linen.

I’m telling you as a traveler who read reviews on the internet and got there himself in a rented car, which means I went there to God knows where, without knowing English, with my wife and three summer child on hands.

The navigator indicated the exact road to the park parking lot, which is free.

You need to devote the whole day to this miracle! I'm not a Formula 1 fan and didn't become one after visiting the park, but this is a real miracle! Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. We decided to go there, despite the fact that we had heard a lot of negative reviews in Dubai, saying that there was nothing to do there, and besides, children under 110 cm tall are practically not allowed anywhere. One man purposefully dissuaded me from visiting the park; when I asked what he didn’t like, he said EVERYTHING!))) And when asked if he had ridden a roller coaster or an F1 simulator, he answered NO! Because of them, I just wanted to go, the man surprised me, to visit a Ferrari and not take a ride there?!)))

The park is quite large. We arrived at 11 and left at 20 o'clock. There are Russian-speaking staff at the ticket office and in the park who will explain everything in detail, as soon as you tell them that you need a “Russian cashier”. There are two types of tickets, skip the line costing 440 dirhams (1 dirham 9 rubles) and general admission 240 dirhams. But on some attractions, even with a premium ticket you can get into a queue of the same ones, but there are not so many of them.

A map of the park is given out at the checkout, ask where children are allowed, where there are the most queues and all the questions that interest you. Children under 3 years old are free. Bags are checked at the entrance; food is not allowed. The child was in a stroller and they let him in without any problems.

We first went to the F1 simulator, since you need to register there in advance (D) (hereinafter, in parentheses, I will indicate the number and letters indicated on the map).


Steering wheel in the F1 simulator.


Viz driving a simulator.


There is an original F1 car and, roughly speaking, a simple Ferrari car, the cost is 100 dirhams, the rest of the attractions have free entry and an unlimited number of rides on one at least 100 times, you just have to wait in line for a new one. At 11:30 the queue was at 14:00, we paid 200 dirhams for two and moved on. One thing was not taken into account, since no one warned and it is not written anywhere that if you are shorter than ~165 cm, then you will not be able to reach the pedals in the simulator))) My wife got into trouble, with a height of 160 cm she had to stick her head out from under steering wheel, then dive down to press the pedals, thereby not seeing the screen. If you are shorter than 165 cm, go not to F1, but to a simple car that is on the right.

It’s an interesting feeling, you race for 10 minutes, after which even your abs hurt from the shaking. My wife didn’t like it for the reasons stated above.

Around the paid simulator there are small, free analogues, for which there is also a queue and you need to sign up in advance. We took the coupons, but in the end we didn’t get to them.



There are a lot of different bells and whistles in the park: spinning cars, car bodies on the walls, a bunch of real Ferraris, various models showing the aerodynamics of the car, etc.

Then we just look around where to go and figure out on the map what is where. Impressions so far so-so. The time has come to leave my wife and child and go experience everything alone. I take the queue for the attraction (O). After standing for 20 minutes, the crowd went into a booth where they showed some kind of hat on TV, I think they arrived))) We are asked to go further, sit down and buckle up......and then it started) This is super))) I won’t describe the whole process, so that you yourself would like to visit there. My wife liked it too.

I get in line for the Ross formula (A), wait about 30 minutes, and here comes the long-awaited moment. The start and you are pressed into the seat, from which you cannot lift your head. Excellent impression, not so much for my wife.




The longest queue that I stood in was the cinema hall (T) ... about 40 minutes or so. On the map you can see three pillars in three rows, so these are the chairs in which they lift you up to the screen and you take part in the races! Great, we liked it. Half an hour later I passed by and there was not a single person in line.

On (Q and K) you ride in special trailers and look at the history of the creation of the car, etc. Let's say it's normal.

We didn’t ride on (G) because they just roll you around in round “wheels”, we didn’t waste time. The child was not allowed to go to (H,B,I).

Want to change a real wheel on an F1 car?


Then this attraction is for you (N). They give you a pneumatic wrench, with which you must unscrew the nut on the wheel, remove the old wheel and put the new one in and tighten it. First they show you how to do it, then you change it for a while! In front of me there was a girl who easily changed the tire, I think STRONGER!, but as it turned out later it was very easy.
